Just had to share with someone...

I recently interviewed for a NICU position in my hospital. :heartbeat I got the call yesterday and was offered the position. This has been my dream and I can't believe it. :D

I will still do correctional health per diem but no more med-surg for me (yay)! I am so grateful, excited and it has brought some 'spark' back into my dull life.

Wish me luck :nurse:

P.S. I remember when I joined this site as a pre-nursing student............where the heck does time go??

Congrats,i was just looking at NICU position posted in my hospitals website and i was thinking seriously about that.i loove babies.i hope to join you.

Go for it! It's worth a try. I was very nervous myself as they are quite 'picky' at my hosp for the NICU. I prayed and was myself during the interview.

Much luck to you!! :heartbeat

Thank you. A month and a half eh? I bet you are counting those days :D

Congratulations to you too!! Have you decided/found a job yet?

Totally counting down the days!

Not yet on the job search, lol, all of the hospitals that I want to work at require you to have your license active before you can apply with them. Phooey! It's ok though, we have survived this part, the wait can be a little longer. :D

I am sooooooooo stoked for you!!!

(((((((((HUGS)))))))))

Congratulations!!! I am a pre-nursing student and NICU nursing is my dream...I hope someday I can follow in your footsteps!

2 weeks after I applied. I put in for a transfer since I was working med-surg at the same hospital (and only hospital in a 250+ mile radius-I must add). :rolleyes:

Much luck to you too!!!! :)

Glad to hear that you love it! Orienting on the shift you will be working makes things so much easier, you already kinda know everyone once you go on your own. I miss nights...
